Persevere

"I was drawn into the presence on the One who had, far more that I did, the power to keep me close. I found my focus subtly shifting away from my efforts to God's: from rigour to grace, from rigidity to relationship. I soon realised that this was happening regularly. I was praying much more. I became less worried about the mechanics and methods and in turn I was more motivated. And so God cares for us that I realised anew...he himself helps us to pray. I must admit I can't explain how it is that the Holy Spirit prompts us and produces the desire to persevere in all thing. All I know is - he does." - Timothy Jones: Christianity Today

To Rest

Mark 6:31 New King James Version (NKJV) 31  And He said to them,  “Come aside by yourselves to a deserted place and rest a while."

To Encourage...

Hebrews 10:23-25 English Standard Version (ESV) 23 Let us hold fast the confession of our hope without wavering, for he who promised is faithful. 24 And let us consider how to stir up one another to love and good works, 25 not neglecting to meet together, as is the habit of some, but encouraging one another, and all the more as you see the Day drawing near.
